A 17-year-old right-handed high school pitcher sustained a first-time anterior shoulder dislocation. The patient`s imaging revealed a small Hill-Sachs lesion; however, the clinical team`s decision was to manage it nonoperatively. In this case, the patient underwent 7 weeks of rehabilitation, which included general upper extremity strengthening exercises, a modified interval throwing program, and a pitching progression adapted specifically for the patient. After rehabilitation, the patient returned to live pitching with improvements in his pitching statistics. The uniqueness of this case is that it is a less common intervention approach posttreatment.
